He was informed that he was not allowed to leave the country because the Ministry of Internal Affairs had placed him under a travel ban, but the reason for the ban has been left unexplained.\n<\/p>\n<p>\n  \u201cSince that day, I haven\u2019t been able to get any information from the Ministry of Internal Affairs,\u201d Ali told Meydan TV. \u201cIn April I returned [to Azerbaijan]. There was no problem then. In May I even renewed my passport. No one said anything then either. Over a month has passed [since being detained at the airport]. I was told, that I would receive information after 15 working days, but I haven\u2019t. I wrote to the Prosecutor General and the State Border Service, and they responded saying it has nothing to do with them. The Ministry of Internal Affairs just says, \u2018Be patient.\u2019\u201d\n<\/p>\n<p>\n  Vugar Ali says that the travel ban may be a technical problem. He had previously been under a travel ban because of his brother, but later that ban was lifted. \u201cMaybe when I renewed my passport the old ban was activated in the system. I don\u2019t know,\u201d Ali says.\n<\/p>\n<p>\n  Meydan TV was unable to reach the Ministry of Internal Affairs for comment.\n<\/p>\n<p>\n  Vugar Ali\u2019s brother, Jamal Ali, was a member of the group H.O.S.T until 2008. On 17 March 2012 Jamal Ali was arrested after performing at an anti-government demonstration. Upon his release, Jamal Ali left Azerbaijan and currently resides in Berlin.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Vugar Ali has been unable to find out why he can not leave Azerbaijan<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":11,"featured_media":105545,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"_sitemap_exclude":false,"_sitemap_priority":"","_sitemap_frequency":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[37],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-190580","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-news","infinite-scroll-item","generate-columns","tablet-grid-50","mobile-grid-100","grid-parent","grid-33","no-featured-image-padding"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v28.2 -
